The Future Is Uncertain — Is Your Organization Prepared?
We Propose To Assess The
Strategic Foresight Maturity Level
Novice
Organizations at the novice level have limited or no formal strategic foresight processes in place. They rely primarily on reactive decision-making and short-term planning with little awareness of foresight methodologies or their benefits.
Emerging
Emerging organizations are beginning to recognize the importance of strategic foresight and have taken initial steps to integrate it into their processes. They may have some tools or practices in place but lack consistency, alignment, or organizational-wide adoption.
Established
Established organizations have well-developed strategic foresight capabilities embedded within their processes. They regularly use foresight to inform decision-making, anticipate change, and align strategic objectives, supported by strong leadership and cross-functional collaboration.
Expert
Expert organizations demonstrate exceptional mastery in strategic foresight. They proactively shape future scenarios, influence their industry, and consistently leverage foresight as a competitive advantage. Their foresight practices are deeply integrated and drive innovation, resilience, and long-term success.
